Well, in the same collection is another story dealing with the same
sentinence (what does being human mean) kind of story, IIRC name "Thou art
mindful of him" or a variant thereof. "I, Robot" as far as I can remember,
is the first all-robot story collection of Asimov, which later, combined
with "The Rest of The Robots" (plus a couple of other stories) formed the
rather thick volume "The Complete Robot."
